This is a listing of databases of particular relevance for research at
Teachers College. The databases are organized by department and correlate
with the disciplines represented by the College’s departments and programs.
These databases for the most part cover the periodical literature in their
respective fields, but some also provide citations and abstracts for books,
book chapters, papers, reports, dissertations, and curriculum materials, as
well as statistical and directory information, and some are collections of
non-print materials of various kinds.
There are several key databases that are critical for searching the literature in essentially all subject fields at the College; these include ERIC, Education Full Text, PsycINFO, ProQuest, Academic Search Premier, JSTOR, and Digital Dissertations. These resources in general are not included in the listing By Department, but they are essential for serious study in all included fields.
